Sometimes, we fail to recognize God in quiet moments of connection, believing that only big, dramatic experiences are worth our attention.
Even when you don’t understand the “what” or “how” or “why” of life, God continues to work in and through all circumstances.
The triune God (Parent, Son, and Spirit) is the very model of community – of the interconnectedness of humankind with God, with each other, and with the world.
We are right up there just below God in terms of responsibility and care for the natural world.
Here, the Spirit (lady Wisdom) is portrayed as finding delight and joy in creation.
Maybe satisfaction comes in finding peace and gratitude in what God is doing in the here and now.
What are the expectations, responsibilities, and marks of identity in the family of God?
This entire psalm is a celebration of God as Creator. The psalmist marvels at the ordering of the universe and how deeply interconnected it all is.
In what way have you experienced the Holy Spirit?
